I watched the first half of the first season and found the show to be offensively anti-women. So I stopped watching it and have absolutely no desire to go back. I see squee that focuses on the daringness of the sexuality, and that's cool, whatev, but it doesn't feel that daring for England first of all (it's just camp, and camp is fairly standard), and secondly it's not daring at all in terms of gender issues, it's just another crime show taking the easy way out in terms of cheap plot tricks with dead girls.
But yeah. Can't quite articulate it more eloquently than that, but that's my Torchwood dislike. I know a lot of people disagree, but I'll leave the show to them happily.
